That night, Ryou compressed his bruised face from Alyosha's hard fist. There were countless times he had been hit by that woman.
Ryou admitted that Alyosha fist was harder than a man's fist.
Of course, because Alyosha's body was trained to fight. Having a fist that was so hard and so painful was one of his natural weapons.
"Sir, let me treat your bruises," said one of the men in full maid clothes.
"It's okay, I can do it myself. Thank you," Ryou politely declined.
kriiinggg
The ringing of the call startled Ryou, immediately the maid took the phone for him.
"Hello," answered Ryou.
'How?'
Ryou narrowed his eyes, he recognized the voice. The voice of a man who made him trapped in an awkward situation with Alyosha. Who else but Elisio?
Of the many words that Elisio should have said first, why should he say how?
What's up?
Was he a psychic who could guess what was in Elisio's heart and mind?
Really, the two brothers were the same. They both complicate Ryou's life with their complicated way of thinking and life.
"Err... how... what is it?" Ryou asked back. He didn't want to be wrong, it was better to ask first.
'You do not understand?' replied Elisio on the other end of the call. 'What I'm asking is the progress of you two.'
Ryou took a deep breath. He didn't know what to answer. Would it be polite if he answered like this.
I kissed him, then we wrestled on the white sand beach with seductive touches. And bla bla bla.
Then later Elisio sends assassins to kill Ryou's life.
Okay, that's overkill. In fact, his worries were not true. In fact Elisio would be happy to hear that the two of them had reached that stage, even if it was a little with Ryou's trappings. Surely Elisio will laugh when he finds out that Ryou's face has been battered by Alyosha's punch.
And in fact he already knew. One of the resort visitors who was there was an order from Elisio to follow the two of them. and the news of Ryou's face had reached Elisio's ears before he called him earlier.
"W-we... have been chatting with each other. Just a short conversation, nothing special yet," Ryou replied. He looked at the compress in his hand. "And yeah, we're getting awkward again."
A moment of silence, Ryou waited for the reaction and answer from his future brother-in-law.
Wait! future brother-in-law? when will Ryou and Alyosha get married?
'Hahahahaha!!! good, make your relationship closer. My sister is indeed a tough person, but if you know how to soften her feelings you will become inseparable from her,' Elisio replied. There was not the slightest sense of guilt in his tone of voice. Instead he laughed longer and harder and began to have trouble stopping his laughter.
Ryou was a patient person, but knowing Elisio's reaction made him quite annoyed. But he tried to keep his emotions under control.
Even though unbeknownst to Ryou, Elisio who was calling him was at his desk with a laptop showing a recording that had been making him laugh.
Yes, apparently it wasn't Ryou's explanation that broke Elisio's laughter. But rather a recording of how eagerly her brother was to beat Ryou to a pulp. Luckily Ryou didn't suffer any dislocation of the collarbone from the relentless blows.
They talked on the phone for a long time, until finally Elisio decided to end the conversation.
"I'll catch up there soon. Have a nice day in Switzerland. Don't hesitate to buy anything, make yourself look tempting and attractive in my sister's eyes," said Elisio with a message to Ryou.
"Thank you very much, but until now everything is enough here. You sent a lot of stuff, and I haven't used all of them," Ryou replied. "Have a nice day, good night."
"Good night Ryou."
The call was disconnected, Ryou asked the maid to leave herself. He wanted to rest now.
Ryou lay down on the soft bed of the hotel. He likes the outside view, but he still prefers a closed room like this. Being in an open room wasn't always pleasant for Ryou.
Talking about open spaces, he remembered the kiss he had with Alyosha this afternoon. Everything was still imprinted on his memory, even Ryou felt the kiss still imprint on his thin lips.
Ryou touched his lips, lips that had touched Alyosha's lips without permission. Lips that regretted the sweetness of Alyosha's lips which were rarely touched by other people. The last time Alyosha kissed was when he was with his former lover, and now Ryou is one of the lucky ones to get the chance to kiss those sexy and seductive lips.
"Gosh, I have committed so many sins," he said in a monologue. he closed his eyes slowly. At first he intended to stay awake, but the drowsiness came suddenly and made him go to dreamland early that night.

"Damn it!"
Alyosha wasn't angry at her subordinates or any of the employees who worked at his luxury resort. She wasn't cursing Elisio either. Ryou wasn't with her either.
Then why is she angry?
The reason was the same as the reason that made Ryou blush while holding her lips.
Yes, that kiss.
The kiss that was originally just an impromptu idea in Ryou's brain. But it lingered on Ryou and Alyosha's mind for a long time.
"Stupid! why did I let her do it?!"
BRAK
The closet door which was made of expensive and strong material in the room burst open instantly as the woman's fist flew towards the door.
To hell with her damaged belongings because she destroyed it, all he could think of now was a way to vent her frustration.
But is it really anger? could it be a shame?
"Good grief, sir. Your hand is injured," said one of the servants who were there. "Wait a minute sir, I'll get a doctor for you."
"No! no need!" stop Alyosha. She didn't care about the state of his injured hand now. She wanted to satisfy his feelings with more hitting and crushing.
"B-but your hand---"
"I already told you that I don't want to be treated! Are you going to argue with me?! Go away! I want to be alone!" cried Alyosha shooing the maid out of her room.
"O-okay sir. I'll be going," replied her servant obediently.
Kluk
Okay, it's calm now. Nothing bothered her anymore. And now she could focus more on throwing more stuff and swearing in his room. She really became a lion now.
kriiinggg
Alyosha cursed again. She wanted to destroy the phone, but if it was a call from her mother it could be bad if she didn't pick it up.
"Hello?"
